Re: Leveling of grround via plywood

It depends on the size of your pool. Is it a permanent pool, or a small seasonal one? If moisture gets underneath the pool and keeps the wood wet it's going to start decaying. I would recommend putting it on solid ground.

Re: Leveling of grround via plywood

You're talking a whole lot of weight. The plywood would have to be supported by some pretty substantial framing.

Even the smallest intex easy set holds 3,854 L. Add a few people and the pump and you're over 4000 kilos. Would you park a full-sized Ford Transit van on what you're considering?

It's like brushing your teeth: You can spend a couple minutes a day and pennies a week or go to the dentist once a year and spend several thousand dollars.A pool is like a pet - you have to feed it every day, even the days you don't want to play with it!

Re: Leveling of grround via plywood

Thank you for the Advice. When I level the ground the first time. I thought it was a little bit off,
but it appears im further off then i thought. I think the plan would be too add more dirt to the low level. The Dirt is covered by a black tarp, which is covered by artifical grass which is covered by pool liner/foam and the pool sits on that.
